The car is gone. I just want to thank everyone and all the friends I have made through these last 10 years. I will try to update this blog with any exciting news that may happen in my life. Once again thanks to everyone for checking this blog and leaving comments. I feel very good about where it went so I said goodbye with a peaceful mind :)

Four months later I am going to another event. I picked up a cheap ass pair of p45s (knockoffs I know ><) and refinished them in a standard silver. I also picked up a single used battle so I bought a used one for to make a pair so now I have some decent sized drift spares. I made canards/splitters out of .125" ABS plastic a week or so ago. I finished them in black with a pretty prevalent flake. They look neat-O I think. Not much else going on really. I am working at Nissan in sales still and trying to find a job in Japan. I would like to move back as soon as possible at least for a few years to be with my gf and travel a bit more. Also would like to pick up a r32 sedan or two and ship them back stateside when the time comes to go back. All of this hypothetically speaking of course. Anyways here are some pics I know that is most of what people care for.

This was the first event of the year and the first event on my new rebuild so I was really anxious and nervous. The car performed flawlessly though with no hiccups in the motor or overheating so I couldn't be happier about that.

First 2 pics are kind of neat because they are pictures of Jared's car (top pic) and mine (below) in almost the exact same location. Unfortunately for him he only made one real run as he kept running into problem with the car cutting off.

Luckily for me there were some people taking pictures out there so that was nice. Only thing I am gona complain about it the angle, I hate when they are taking from the non-compressed side of the suspension because it makes the car look about 2inches higher than it really is :/ .. oh well beggars can't be choosers right..

This guy got a neat pic of me changing my tires, I love the kind of people even more so than action shots because they really capture the work and emotion that go into you and your vehicle.

Something else kind of neat was that my car was chosen for next months flyer :) Also that means I get in free if my butt would hurry up and get a job so I can buy more tyres ><

Stopped for a potty break in the weeds and snapped this. I really need cool spares :(

PP members together at an event has been long awaited.

Kind of backwards but here is Jared and I fueling up before we headed out.

After D1 Odaiba we walked over and watched the gundam so it's thing, it is really cool in person. I always imagine it actually fighting haha.

Riding the train to Mt. Takao in north Toyko.

It was really a beautiful place. Amongst all the dense city places like this are never the long of a trip away. Hop on the train and enjoy a beer and you are there.

We rode a cable car from the base up towards the pathway where you can venture up to great views and the temple.

Odango

Lastly back in my hometown as I call it we had lunch up at the top floor of Yokosuka-chuo station.

I always like the view when the sky is clear because you can see Chiba in the distance. Also the island is pretty famous in this pic as well. It is called Sarushima island, which means Monkey Island although I don't think any monkeys live on there anymore I am sure they did at one point.

This is a pretty popular yakitori spot in Yokosuka, it's in a back alley and you can dine-in or simply walk up and start eating, you put your sticks in a numbered bowl in front of you and when you are done they count them and you pay. Quick and easy way to get your grub on.

Pachisuro lol.. so loud but it is pretty entertaining, especially when you win big money.
